i spent 6 hours at trentons today. he's now a hydro guy.
i have 1200 watt in there now. 
he wants it back in a few days.
my temps were in the low 70's with one light. i was burning $100 a month in kerosene to keep my temps up. with 2 lights my temps went up to 85. i had my exhaust attached to one hood. i raised that hood a little and disconnected the exhaust. i now have the exhaust hung in the center of the room at the ceiling. this is pulling more heat out of the room. i'm now sitting at a steady 82 degrees.

i'm putting out 2000ppm at my exhaust for 12 hours when i run my heater. if i get a bigger fan and air cool my lights i can run the heater again. i may or may not.

and if you plan on doing indo during summer you know you can completely forget about using a heater at all... and i don't know any a/c units that put out mass quantities of co2... hahahaha =]

Grow cab looks great...
I'm a little concerned though how the plants in there will have access to a plentiful supply of co2... although I'm sure you have all this in hand.
One thing though, why so small? Is it a breeding tent?

i went to home depot and bought a T. i now have both lights air cooled. i don't have the glass on the hoods. that T cost me $13. but i think it will be worth it. the dude at the register says "wow, that T is expensive. can't you just use flex tubing and rig up your own? that's what i did." i'm telling you, EVERYONE here grows.
